There were rumors going around for a little bit about Keith Urban and his wife maybe separating and having some rough times. But Urban squashed those faster than you could imagine. Now Kidman and Urban are in the headlines again but for the complete opposite. These two are stronger than ever. Nicole has opened up about what it’s been like to support Keith Urban in his sobriety for more than 10 years! “You can’t save somebody, they’ve got to save themselves,” she declares on The Jess Cagle Interview. She then goes on to say “it’s a very big thing for people like me who go, ‘I can take care of you. I can do it.’” She adds, “At some point, you just have to say, ‘I love you and I’m here when you decide to do the work. If you don’t, then that’s it.’” Urban has been open about battling addiction since the ’90s. He checked himself into the Betty Ford Center in Palm Springs for a recurring problem with alcohol abuse again in 2007, just four months after he and Kidman got married. They haven’t made it without struggle, but Kidman and Urban have both made it clear they are they’re for each other through sickness and in health and will support each other through anything.
